Dental emergency in Salt Lake County? We can often see you today.

Tooth pain, a broken crown, a knocked-out tooth, or swelling doesn't wait for a convenient time. Neither do we. Call or text now and we'll get you answers fast — with sedation available and a biomimetic approach that tries to save the tooth, not reflexively pull it.

Know the Signs

What counts as a dental emergency

If you're dealing with any of these, don't wait it out — call us.

🦷 Severe or throbbing tooth pain 💥 Broken or cracked tooth 👑 Lost or loose crown / filling 🩸 Swelling or a dental abscess 🥊 Knocked-out tooth (trauma) 😬 Bleeding that won't stop 🔩 Failing or painful implant 😣 Jaw pain or a locked jaw

A knocked-out tooth? Act in minutes.

Gently rinse it (don't scrub), keep it moist in milk or saliva, and call us immediately. The faster we see it, the better the odds we can save it.

Urgent Care Framing

Why "wait and see" almost always makes it worse

Most dental emergencies are caused by an infection or a structural failure — and both get worse with time, not better. A small crack becomes a fracture. A little sensitivity becomes an abscess. The window to save the tooth narrows every day you wait.

Getting seen early also usually means a smaller, less expensive, less invasive fix — often the difference between saving a tooth and losing it. And you skip the ER waiting room, the ER bill, and the generic "take antibiotics and see a dentist" that sends you right back to square one.

Skip the ER for tooth problems

Emergency rooms can't treat the tooth — they can only manage pain and refer you out. We treat the actual problem, often the same day, at a fraction of the cost.

😌

Sedation available for emergency care

Pain and fear often travel together. If you're anxious — or just hurting — we offer nitrous, oral, and IV sedation so we can treat you comfortably, right when you need it.

We try to save the tooth first

Many offices reflexively extract. Our biomimetic approach means Dr. Williams looks for a way to save your natural tooth before considering removal — because nothing beats the tooth you were born with.

Broken or ugly work from another dentist?

A failed crown, a botched implant, a filling that fell out on vacation — we fix rescue cases every week. Text a photo to (801) 268-2323 and we'll tell you honestly what's possible.

Your follow-up connects to the $67 consult

Once the emergency is handled, your comprehensive follow-up rolls into the $67 Smile Health Consultation — so you leave with a real long-term plan, not just a patch.

We try to save it first. Pinecrest is a biomimetic practice, so Dr. Williams looks for a tooth-conserving option before recommending extraction whenever it's safe to do so. If a tooth truly can't be saved, we'll explain why and walk you through replacement options like implants.
We don't bill traditional dental insurance, but emergency care is straightforward and transparent — you'll know the cost before we proceed, and financing through Cherry, Sunbit, and CareCredit is available. Our goal is to relieve your pain first and sort the details clearly.
